And in Indirect Incidence, both the IR LED and Photo diode are placed in parallel (side by side), facing both in same direction. In that fashion, when a object is kept in front of IR pair, the IR light gets reflected by the object and gets absorbed by photodiode.
There are two different frequencies, in two entirely different contexts, involved. The infrared light generated by an infrared LED is in the 300+ GHz range, this is correct. For instance, the TSAL5400 IR LED often used in remotes has its radiation peak at 940nm wavelength, i.e. 318,930 GHz. However, IR remote controls do not output continuous infrared light. The LED output is chopped via control circuitry into pulses of a given frequency, such as 34 KHz, 38 KHz, 40 KHz or 56 KHz. The IR sensor at the other end filters incident IR at the specified frequency, and ignores any IR that does not conform to this chopping frequency or modulation. This ensures that stray infrared light, such as from sunlight, heat sources, or incandescent lamps, is ignored by the sensor, and only the correctly modulated incoming IR is acted upon.
